T-Shirt Re-vamp

My daughter was getting rid of this black and gray tee that she felt was too big for her, so I decided to see what I could do with it. I found some great tutorials on revamping tees online and looked through them and decided to try one of them.

Here is how I reconstructed my daughters old tee:

1. Cut off the sleeves.
2. Cut the neck into a V or U shape.
3. Cut the back into a V or U shape.
4. Cut the bottom hem off all the way around the t-shirt.
5. Cut all the way up both sides.
6. Starting at the bottom, every two inches up the side, cut into the t-shirt 3 inches, ending at the armpit. Do this on both sides.
7. After you have all the pieces cut, start tying them together in knots all the way down the shirt.
